Useless blue lines in sketch mode?

[amedina]

Does anyone know the config.pro that makes this nonsense happen?
when i create geometry by selecting any geometry tool, I get nice colors.
When I go to dimension, all sketch stuff becomes blue so I can't tell what's
what. Its very distracting and I guess it is a good test feature for new
comers to see how well they know the interface, but man its
confusing/disorienting. Maybe its not even in the config.pro. Its one of
those annoying things that is not annoying enough to go fish for it if
someone else already knows the answer. Thanks in advanced. Maybe it will
annoy me enough to figure it out soon.

regards,

Alfonso

You can change this by setting the drawing setup optionline_style_standard to std_ansi.

My bad... I just reread this and saw that you were talking about lines in sketcher mode. (too early, not enough coffee)

I think what you are looking for is the system colors settings. I just found a TAN saying to set your systems colors to pre Wildfire will cause the sketch lines to be blue. This issue seems to have been resolved in later releases. Hope this helps.
